' Registration.
The late Autocrat of .the ?Carolinas, in tho
last hours of bis reign, devised and perfected a
scheine which illustrates the force of the adage,
'the ruliug passion strong in death." lie
issued a Circular letter of instruction to the
Boards of Registration in this Stato, in which
the Acts of Congress arc distorted to a mean
ing which even old Thud: Stc'vonf?, Arch-Radi
cal that be is. would repudiate. Among, other
remarkably bright ideas of this Th'uiiel of the
prcscut, is the conclusion ho has come to, that
naturalized citizens, who voluntarily engaged
in tho rebellion, arc disfranchised. | His argu
ment .must have been prepared under some
extra-inspiring circumstances,?it"ifsV forcible.
First, an alien becomes a citizen by taking the
oath of allegiance. Secondly, a naturalized
citizen, if he engaged in the rebellion, violated
that oath. Thirdly, by violating tho oath, ho
ltjvi'.v M K AN ALIEN AGAIN.
If thb>.were the case, wc would congratulate
our naturalized frionds. We would; ^ulvisc.
| them to hold to thoir foreign allegiance; as .wo
.think they stand a much-'better chance -as
l^ntish, or Gcrinan, or French subjects, than
they-'do as "unreconstructed rcbs in' South
Carolina. But we suppose that this rule of
of the dopartod hero is one of those bad rules,
that will not work both ways., Wc imagine,
that if a naturalized citizen were put on trial
for treason, tho Rads would hardly use the
edict of Sickles,?it wouldn't suit their case

It is now som?thi?g like thirty years since
the establishment Of the first Advertising
Agency in this country. At that time there
were scarcely eight hundred periodicals, of all
descriptions printed in tho United .States, while
now tho number will exceed four thousand.
Advertisers have increased aud Agencies becu
established in every important city, und havo
proved a great assistance to the newspaper
press.
It is estimated that at the present time there
are several hundred mcu who make , this their
business, but of these no more than twenty are
known to any considerable extent, and by far
the most important aro two or thtco well

Internal Revenue Decisions.
' Tho Commissioner eT Internal Revenue has
'recently rendered the following decisions :
iJJJ^A printer is liable to the special tax as a
manufacturer if the articles he prints exceed
in value when printed $1(1(10 per annum. A
printer is understood to be any person or firm
whose business it is to take impressions from
types of engraved surfaces upon paper or other
materials. In determining the liability of
printers to the spcci:il tax as manufacturers the
value of the articles of merchandise produced
by them should alone be taken into considera
tion. Amounts received for inserting adver
tisements in newspapers are not, therefore, to
be so included.
When.the contents of packages of tax paid
spirits arc changed in character by mixing or
reduction in proof they must lie again inspect
ed ami branded in the usual manner. Drand
ing the word "rectified" is optional, there being
no 1 w or regulation requiring this to be done.
The name und address of the firm or person
doing business, or rectifiers, or wholesale deal
ers, must, however, appear on the package.
Gasoline, whether above or below seventy in
weight, is considered to be a coal oil, so far as
the payment of special tax is concerned.
Weiss beer is not included in the provisions
of the act of March 2, 1S(J7, excepting root
beer and other small beer. It belongs to the
class of fermented liquors, and is governed by
the provisions of the law relating to that sub
joct. The producer .should, therefore, be re
quired t) pay the special tax as a brewer and a
tax of one dollar per barrel upon the beer.

I.ETTKIl FROM UPVF.ltNOR ollR..
KxECUTivK Dbi?'t. South Carolina.
Columbia, S. C, Sept. 7th, 1S07.
Major-General I). E. Sickles, Cha,deston, S. 'C't'
SlH :?T have learned from"'the public press,
although I have received no official notice of
the fact, that you have been rcloived from the
command of the Second Military District, em
bracing this State and North Carolina, and
that, by order-of the President1. Mnjor-Ocnornl.
Canby has succeeded to the same,.
I desire to express" lo ybu the great regret
which I feel personally, and officially, at the
course taken by the President and bis advisers
in this matter. There arc many of the orders
which have been issued by yWri ''since the pas
sage of the reconstruction hills'Iii March last
which did not meet my approval; but it is due
to you and your official action that I should
bear voluntary testimony to the wisdom and
success of your administration} and to express
the opinion that the almost 'unlimited powers
with which you wer." invested 1/y tho acts of
Congress have been exercised with moderation
and forbearance. Your General Orders, No.
10, so far as this State is concerned, were, h-st
Spring, in my opinion absolutely necessary,
looking to the impoverished condition of tin,
country, the shortness of the. provision and
staple crops of,last year, to tho. general pecuni
ary distress pervading the country, and to the
necessity of protecting the small, means of
farmers aud planlei* at that time from the
process id'courts. They were thereby enabled
Jo subsiut their. Jjuuilies ajid^jgr^w, ?^hc. present
crop.
This crop [it'otiiifirja to bo in many respects
and in ttuitiy sections of the State the iuo.-t im
portirit and largest that has been grown for
many years; ,nnd when harvested' you could,
without hazard or apprehension, have executed
your purpose, ns declared to mo,.of modifying
General Orders No. 10. so that creditors could
have enforced their demands without produ
cing general distress, if nothing worse.
It is al.su dm- to you to say that in my judg
ment, if General Orders, No j 1U had ityt be::*
issued last Spring a very considerable increase
in the number of trou.ps? in this : State wyuhl
ll^vu boon necessary to;havo been stat ioned at;
many of the courthouses to have ?preserved., the
public records from destruction, and ensure
the safety of sheriffs in executing civil process
iu their hands, which they had been ordered
to levy by thoughtless an ' heartless creditors.
In 1113' opinion General Orders No. 10 received
the approval of a very large' majority of the
citizens of South Carolina, and your general
administrat ion as Commander of the District is
approved by a majority nearly as great.
Iu all official jntcrcoiisc .which we have bad
I beg to tender you my thanks for the uniform
kindness and courtesy with which I have been
treated personally, and for the'disposition you
have always manifested to'make '*V?c burdiV.;=>
of the military government as light upon thc;
people whom I represent as it were possible
under the q:vcuinstances. I have not tho pleas
ure of a personal acquunilance with your suc
cessor, General Canby, but hope that my offi
cial relations with him may bo marked with
the same harmony and kind feeling which havo
characterized our official intercourse for nearly
two years past. ,1 have tho honour to be.
Geueral, very truly and respectfully, your
friend aud obedient servant.

Governor of South Carolina.

Washington, Sept. If 1 * 1807.
SlR?Your lOxcclleucy's letter of the 7th
inst, was forwarded to me at New York, and
received on the 1 Ith. The cordial terms in
which you are pleased to refer to our official
and personal relations during jny service iji the
Carolinas, arc gratefully appreciated. In my
successor, Brevet Major-Genera 1 Canby. von
will meet nil officer whose ample experience
and distinguished services have justly com
mended him to the confidence of the govern
ment.
In view of the announcement already made
by General Canby, adopting and confirming tho
orders heretofore iu force in tho Second Mili
tary District, it is not probable that any mate
rial change iu the conduct of affairs will result
from the change in command, In my retire
ment it is a source of much gratification to
compare the present condition of South ('aro

These conditions have no other object than
to make our institutions truly republican in

and that no oecassion or pretext for conflict
may hereafter be found. There is: not. in my
